It's time to pass on the fun... plus I need the money for a new daily. :-) I'm asking $25k OBO. With a few mods this thing would be perfect for rallycrosses.

Knew a B230 was a good motor but didnt know a 740 was capable of this, awesome stuff!

Greg Cochran built, Sam Collier, suspension tune by Randy Pobst and Kaplhenke Racing; Ben Kaplan, this wonderful kooky engineer that builds race parts for old Volvo's.

All part of the adventure, G, I really enjoy working my way through traffic. Gotta keep calculating ahead.

@Leshic2 3 года назад

My only complaint, too short! Ha! What a great story and footage. Thank you for documenting the whole even with video and your live naration and thoughts! Love the "eyeball like" camera with the focus on the side mirrors. Looked like a lot of work editing, but great job and greatly appreciate the effort to share it with us.

@randypobstofficial 3 года назад

Oh yeah, it's a FLYIN' Moose. :-). Been some good work done on it by Fiox Motorsports by Road Atlanta, and Sam Collier, old Volvo guru, and me, on suspension tuning, and others

@footnfan 3 года назад

I continue to love the Content Randy! Makes me feel like I am there with you! Would you ever be willing to let a fan come and hang for a race, it I promise to keep my mouth shut and hands in my pockets?????

@randypobstofficial 3 года назад

Sure, come any time! That'd be fun. True, I might be realllll busy, but not always. Next is Lucky Dog Carolina Motorsports Park near Columbia, South Carolina, Aug.21-22, 2021. We'll have the Flyin' Moose there.

@davidpeterson9287 Год назад

i love this, thank yo so much for sharing. road course style grass roots racing doesnt get near enough exposure. for someone of your stature to share this with the public is very special to me. american motorsport is such an important part of americas history that needs more love. videos like this is helping motorsports!!!

@infiniteloopracing6720 3 года назад

Welcome to the pain of running your own cheap endurance racing team! It's a ton of work before the race and during the race, but it's worth it every time! Hope to share the track with your team soon. Great footage!

Greetings from the Tifosi dell'Alce! (Fans of the Moose) Each time out brings you one step closer. Do you have a live stream planned for the near future? Where you reveal your merch?

@randypobstofficial 3 года назад

Hi, Gregorius, thanks for saying hi! Members only live stream very soon, promise. It's such a good time. Thx for bein an early adopting member 👍. The merch is almost done. It's made in Texas and got held up by the big winter storm they had to endure. A better Moose is part fo the plan, no longer prancing, he's now really Flying. More shirt choices, and real live women's shirts.

@stoneshrink 3 года назад

thank you. I'm in the decision process for a 200 tread wear tire - this is beyond helpful. Thank you! Maybe I can return the favor on the knock-back issue. GM cars (Corvette, GTO, Camaro - the GTO era cars), all can overheat their throwout bearing and suddenly you have no clutch. A couple pumps later, it's back - but I've had this same issue from all of the manufacturers (OEM and aftermarket). Most times the solution is get the hose away from heat or shield it from heat...

@randypobstofficial 3 года назад

Hellooo, Aaron, thanks much for the advice, it's obviously driving me crazy. We will take a good, hard look at it. I wonder if it could be heat, too.

@csours 3 года назад

Watching you drive through that traffic, I see confidence. You can't be scared.

@LapoftheWorld 3 года назад

No one expects the Volvo. As much as I hate you guys had that much trouble, it definitely made for a good narrative. I've done a couple of LeMons and Champ (back when it was Chump) events and that was still some of the most fun I've had on four wheels. The breaking stuff part is not so fun, but arguably makes for better stories.

@Misterfairweather 3 года назад

Do you have a way of monitoring fuel pressure as you're driving? What could be happening is your fuel pump is heating up under load and you're losing pressure. I especially see this in 80's era cars with in tank pumps that relied on the fuel to cool the pump. As the gasoline heats up under racing (I'm assuming you're using a return style fuel system) the pumps performance starts to decrease. This is representative of what you're seeing, pump gets hot, you pit, you tinker with something, splash in a little extra "cool" fuel go out it is better for a bit, then the problem returns as the pump heats up again. I could go on about specific heat of e10 vs MBTE enriched gasoline, pump heat curves and whatnot but in short if you're running an OE style pump for the car, see if you can find an aftermarket replacement that they claim will work with ethanol. (This isn't an anti-ethanol or ethanol breaking down items thing it has to do with the specific heat capacity of ethanol vs other gasoline blends at temperature).

@spinnetti 3 года назад

RE71 wears like crazy. I found them way too squishy (like the old hoosier bias ply)... They don't punish the novice due to the huge plateau at the edge of grip, but not rewarding to drive on for me. We ran them last year and fully burned up a new set (which is ok, but they wear 2x as much as anything else). Won't run them again. Bring that Volvo to Houston - would like to see how we stack up with our LS400 Lexus

@jerryc6497 3 года назад

Lol "don't hit things you can see"

@randypobstofficial 3 года назад

Basic rule of racing. If the nose of another racer appears in your peripheral vision, that car has earned the right to tracing room. Leave a lane, a carwidth and six inches, to the edge of the racing surface.

I am afriad I don't have much of one. I rarely plan my own races very far ahead of time, tho it is a good idea, of course. I expect to be driving several WRL races with a top team, as many Lucky Dog events as possible, including racing my own Flyin' Moose at the East Coast races, Charlotte and Carolina Mtr Park. Also, various ChampCar and AEr events when we can. I like PittRace because I have beloved family there. Be sure to follow on IG for clues. Thank you.

I know the downs. Had a decent track day, 19 ZO6 M7, then had the worst Autocross ever. When one is old, and you wait around in the S. Texas Sun for 6 hours before you run, and since you walked the track 6 hours before, the senility must have set in. Oh well can only improve.
